CESA was really ours saviours for 2022 hardware.
Without them, no yearly results...

2022 was a great year for Kirby.
 
The epilogue is over, but we can't have a reunion without a rebirth. I'm no stranger to that paradise.

Bullshit:

13 NEW Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin 3

10 NEW Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin 3

6 NEW Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin 3

The Rebirth announcement effect:

13 - Final Fantasy VII: Remake

159 - Final Fantasy VII: Remake

9 159 Final Fantasy VII: Remake

From 159 to 9 (13). Let's go!!!!!

The Reunion:

12 NEW Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII: Reunion 3

10 NEW Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII: Reunion 3

6 NEW Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII: Reunion 3

Despite no major title to appear in the top 20 for the year, still a good year in regards to placing in the top 10 (before update) in individual months for the one true tensai. Well, see you all in 2025.
